Ventura County Sheriff’s Capt. Frank O’Hanlon says about 100 people demonstrating in favor of health care reforms rallied Wednesday night on a street corner. One protester walked across the street to confront about 25 counter-demonstrators.

O’Hanlon says the man got into an argument and fist fight, during which he bit off the left pinky of a 65-year-old man who opposed health care reform.

this is just too funny. and just in case you were wondering, the ap story was sure to mention:

She says he had Medicare.

i’m guessing the obamacare supporter ‘got the point.’ (and i’m sure he’ll get to experience further points in civil court.) apparently, the attacker fled the scene, but others in the crowd were able to ‘finger’ the suspect. i’m sure they can ‘point him out’ in a police lineup. talk about giving someone ‘the finger…’

ok, i’ll stop now.

way to make president obama and thousand oaks proud at the same time!!
